ARMOR CHAPTER PART 1: INVITATION

"Shinji, do you mind giving me a ride to the village?" asked Shiori. "There's somewhere I need to go, but the car's in the shop."

"Alright," nodded Shinichi, not asking why she needed to go to Hinamizawa. "Let me get my keys."

Shiori smiled. She was going to surprise her son.

"Surprise, Shinji!" Shiori announced loudly, "Our new home!"

Shinichi was looking at a house. It was a simple two-story building with a lawn and backyard and a concrete fence around it. It even had a parking garage for her car and his bike. Modest and not too fancy. It suited their needs just fine. On the nameplate were their names.

The house was also within Hinamizawa.

"Kaa-chan, but how?" Shinichi asked, shocked.

"Oh, you know me, Shinji. When I want something to happen, I make it happen," said Shiori.

"But the Sonozaki Clan owns most of the land in Hinamizawa, and I know Mion's granny would never sell it to you," said Shinichi.

"That's not completely true. You see it was a few months ago when I went to their house to discuss about me buying land off them…"

Oryo, Mion and Akane sat at one side of the table with Shiori sitting across from the three Sonozaki women.

"I'm glad you made time for me," said Shiori.

"Personally, I wouldn't, but my daughter and granddaughter persuaded me," said Oryo grumpily.

"So, you wish to buy land, Shiori-san?" asked Mion.

"Yes," nodded Shiori. "Hinamizawa is a nice place to live and even if we live close by in Okinomiya, it's just not the same for Shinji. He and I may be city folk, but he doesn't remember much about his life then and only remembers ever living in Hinamizawa."

"So, you're doing this for that son of yours," commented Oryo.

"Yes," Shiori nodded, "A mother must do everything in her power for her child's happiness and I want my son to be happy with me. So, I want to build a home here in Hinamizawa."

"We'll hire construction workers and an architect to help design and build your home," offered Akane.

"And we'll make you feel welcomed," said Mion.

"I do have a condition, though," said Shiori, "When I move into Hinamizawa, I want Rika-chan and Hanyuu-chan to stay with me."

Oryo frowned. While the council would have a problem with Rika living outside of the village, since Shiori would have a house in the village that would no longer be an issue. Rika would still be living in the village after all. Shiori would not be adopting the two girls, but they would be living with her nonetheless.

"Very well," agreed Oryo, "Just make sure to take care of Rika-chama and Hanyuu-chama."

"I will," said Shiori. "I am a mother, after all."

"But what about Satoko-chan?" asked Shinichi.

"Oh, she and her brother will still live in that house they lived in with Rika-chan and Hanyuu-chan," said Shiori. "It's a shame they can't live in their own house."

"I know. Bad memories," reminded Shinichi. Satoko and Satoshi had suffered from the abuse of their aunt and uncle before it all ended with their aunt's death. She'd been beaten to death and after that Teppei fled. While it was suspected that some random stranger had been responsible, it was actually Satoshi while under the influence of the Hinamizawa Syndrome.

"Well, they're together now," said Shiori, "And we won't be far from them so there won't be a problem there."

"So, when do we move in?" asked Shinichi.

"Today," said Shiori. "The place has already been tidied up and the movers are already bringing our stuff over."

"I can't wait to tell my friends," said Shinichi eagerly.

"And once we get settled, let's have a housewarming party!" Shiori beamed.

It was the first day of school after summer vacation. Shinichi and Rena met with the others at the bridge near the old watermill. He was going to tell them the good news. Hanyuu and Rika already knew and so did Mion and Shion.

"Alright, guys," said Shinichi to the club. "I have an important announcement to make."

"You're proposing to Rena-san?" teased Satoko. Rena blushed.

"One day, Satoko-chan," remarked Shinichi, "One day, but no. That's not my announcement. My announcement is…I'M LIVING HERE IN HINAMIZAWA AGAIN!"

"Shin-kun!" Rena hugged him. "That's great!"

"You have a house, here?" Keiichi asked. "For real?"

"Yep!" Shinichi smiled widely.

"But Mion's grandmother hates you," Keiichi reminded.

"Shin-chan's mom made a deal with us," said Mion. "It was months ago. We didn't tell you coz we wanted it to be a surprise."

"Yes," Shion nodded. "I was surprised Oni-baba actually allowed it."

"As long as the house is nowhere near Sonozaki Manor, she was okay with it," said Mion.

"And there's more!" Shinichi knelt down and wrapped his arms around Rika and Hanyuu, "I get two free sisters too!"

"You mean you'll be living with Shiori-san and Shinichi-san?" Satoko asked Rika and Hanyuu, surprised.

"Shiori-mama has been planning on adopting us," said Rika, "But the council wouldn't allow it, so she offered to become our guardian instead."

"She was not going to take no for an answer," added Hanyuu, touched that someone would go so far just to care for them.

"Satoko, I know you're upset…" said Rika. Satoko shook her head.

"I'm not," said Satoko. "I have my Nii-nii and Nee-nee with me. I'm fine. I'm happy for you, Rika."

Rika frowned. She could see Satoko's smile was false. After living together for so long, Satoko just couldn't believe it was all over. "The house we were living in will be yours and Satoshi's now."

"Thank you," Satoshi nodded.

Rika went and gave Satoko a comforting hug.

"And guys," said Shinichi, "Me and Kaa-chan are having a housewarming party this weekend and you're all invited."

"OK, as both club leader and class president I order you all to get to school before we're late!" said Mion. "And last one there has to pay the penalty!" Mion grabbed Keiichi and ran with him to school.

"Hey! Get back here!" Shinichi knelt down in front of Rena, "Hop on, Rena! I'll carry you all the way!"

Rena nodded and got on his back as he looped his arms under her legs with her arms around his neck. He then made a dash to the school after the others. He was not going to lose nor cosplay for Mion.

Later that night, while on patrol, Showa stumbled upon both an unusual and dangerous sight.

"Man I've seen weird Darkloid's before but this is possibly the weirdest looking one yet," Showa said. It looked like one of those old wind-up toys showing a monkey smashing a pair of cymbals together but its smile was demonic with a sharp fang sticking out. Its tail was metallic with a key that had sharp teeth at the tip of it. Its hands were nothing more but metallic/organic shields in the shape of cymbals. It was wearing a torn vest and hat. "Whoever this thing was preying on, must've hated toys."

The Darkloid just cackled as it suddenly rushed forward and slammed both its cymbals together. Showa now found himself crushed between the cymbals

The Monkey Darkloid cackled happily thinking it got Showa, but screeched angrily as all it saw was a crushed wooden log. "Over here!" The Monkey Darkloid turned around to see Showa in his Kage Form. "Hi!" the ninja-like Rider waved. "Kage Bunshin!" He conjured an army of clones. "ATTACK!" The clones swarmed the Monkey Darkloid.

The Monkey Darkloid swung down its arms, striking the first wave like how a hammer would hit a nail, crushing the clones under the cymbals. However, the second wave of clones was wrapped around its right arm. Showa made a hand seal, causing the clones to glow before exploding.

The Darkloid roared at the loss of its arm. It retaliated by shooting its tail at Showa, but he suddenly disappeared. The Monkey Darkloid looked confuse as it leaned its head, looking around for its missing enemy. Suddenly, Showa jumped out of the ground, planting a kick into the Darkloid's chin. The Monkey Darkloid's head snapped backwards. The kick was just enough to briefly stun the beast, allowing Showa to dash beneath it.

The Monkey Darkloid reared up, stomping at the annoyance beneath it, but the Rider only rolled about until he was directly under the beast's belly—and out of its line of fire.

"Take this! Darkness Ball!" Showa shouted, creating a ball of dark energy and pressing it into the beast's stomach. It screeched in pain before falling backward and exploding.

Showa returned to his default form. His antennae then alerted him of another appearance of Darklings. "Damn…" He then went to his bike and drove off, following the signal.

When Showa arrived to the scene, he saw a black clad Rider with gold lines, red visor, and coat fighting against the Darklings in the forest with a golden sword in hand. The Rider looked outnumbered and needed help. Showa drove his bike into the Darklings and ran them over, stopping next to the Rider before dismounting.

"Who are you?" questioned the mysterious Rider in a female voice.

"That's my line," grumbled Showa.

"The name's Kamen Rider Orga. Now, outta my way. I'm working here," said Orga.

"This is my turf! Let me show you! HIGURASHI NO YAIBA!" The sword came to him as it was summoned. When he gripped it he commanded, "SING!" Once the transformation was complete, he executed his attack. "HIGURASHI ZAN!" roared Showa as he destroyed the Darklings with a single swipe of his singing blade. The Darklings were all obliterated by the sword's power.

"So, you're Showa then?" asked Orga as she sheathed her own sword.

"Kamen Rider Showa, Kuro Juusan, BLACK 13…I go by many names," boasted Showa.

"Papa didn't tell me you'd be this talkative," groaned Orga.

"Papa?

Orga then undid her transformation, taking the Orga Phone out of her belt and pressing the End Call button. The armor vanished as the golden lines receded into the belt.

"Wait, you're a girl!" shouted Showa. Orga's human form wore a black tank top with blue jeans and black combat boots. She had long reddish-pink hair and matching eyes. She also sported a pair of bone white horns that resembled cat ears. She looked to be close to his age too, maybe a year or two younger.

"Eyes up here kid unless you want to lose them," threatened the girl as she pointed two fingers at his eyes then to her face.

"Sorry, but Papa? Who do you…wait! You're Smith-san's daughter! Lucy!" Shinichi gaped.

"He did tell you I was coming, right?" the girl, Lucy, asked.

"Yes, but well…you don't look very alike. I mean he has silver hair and you…"

Lucy clarified, "I was adopted if you must know. And if you take your eyes off my face again I'm taking something of yours that you'll miss dearly."

"Well, pleased to meet you," said Showa, undoing his own transformation. "I'm Shinji Banabara, but please call me Shinichi."

"And before you even think of hitting on me, let me tell you I have a boyfriend," Lucy warned. "Now, come on."

"Where to?" asked Shinichi as he undid his transformation.

"To watch a show. Mind if I hitch a ride?" asked Lucy.

Shinichi got on his bike and patted the seat behind him. "Hop on and lead the way." Lucy did and Shinichi drove off.

The Skull Rider opened fire at Musician's feet forcing the Cricket Rider to roll out of the way. He then threw his military fork at the Skull Rider who dodged from its path.

The Skull Rider fired more rounds at Musician who jumped up and away to avoid the bullets as he snatched his weapon out of the air as it returned to him. He dove at the Skull Rider as he slashed him with the military fork. The Skull Rider brought his shotgun up to defend himself and was barely able to block the strike.

"DAICHI! MOVE!" a voice yelled as a balled-up Armadillo charged at them. Musician jumped out of the way as the Skull Rider was slammed into a tree. Armadillo uncurled himself as he began striding toward him.

The Skull Rider tried to jump over Armadillo but the Pill-Bug Rider managed to grab him by the leg, and slammed him to the ground.

Skull Rider scrambled to his feet and charged at him with his fists glowing.

Armadillo's boot glowed red with a tinge of blue and he met Skull Rider's fist with a front kick. The force of the attacks colliding actually threw Armadillo halfway across the battlefield.

Arachnea jumped back as Skull Rider's fist came slamming into the ground where she once stood. Arachnea pulled off her Spider Kama and sent the scythe blades flying at Skull Rider, but her opponent simply sidestepped the attack. He bent his knees and, using the whole weight of his body, lunged at her with his fist and hit her in the stomach making her stumble back. Skull Rider would've continued his assault but he stopped and spun around.

Slasher was charging towards him and started throwing several stupendous punches, but they were to no avail. Skull Rider easily weaved beside several before somersaulting above the final punch. Skull Rider quickly followed up by grabbing Slasher by the head and swinging him away.

"My turn," Carmen muttered as she rushed forward, swinging her scythes at the Skull Rider who was dodging quite well but Slasher intervened by shooting glue at the Skull Rider's feet. Carmen smirked as she jumped and performed a scissor kick. However, she missed when Skull Rider vanished from sight.

"Hey, where did he go?" demanded Musician.

"Right here!" Skull Rider answered as he hovered above them. "Bon Voyage!" He raised his arms above his head, a crackling black energy ball in his hands. He then hurled it at the NEO-NUMBERS, resulting in an explosion which sent them all flying into the air, screaming.

Shinichi commented as he watched the fight alongside Lucy, "I know your dad's good, but not that good."

"He was just testing your team's ability. If you thought that was impressive you should see him when he goes full force," Lucy said with a bit of pride.

"I'll take your word for it, Lucy-san," said Shinichi. "Hey, Warren-san!"

The Skull Rider looked to Shinichi and undid his transformation, the suit turning into shadows that melted off his form. He approached the two teens and Lucy gave her father a hug. "Hi, Papa."

"Hello, Lucy," Warren returned the hug. They let each other go. "Glad you could make it."

"It's the least I could do," said Lucy. "How are Mama and Alan?"

"Both are fine," answered Warren. "So what happened?"

"Well, I was on my way to meet your newest recruit when those Darklings got in the way. I transformed and fought them," Lucy explained, "Then the newbie showed up."

"Hey, don't call me a newbie," Shinichi warned. "I've been doing this for a while."

"Easy there, Shinichi," said Warren. "Lucy's just as dangerous out of her armor as she is in it."

Shinichi looked to the NEO-NUMBERS, all lying on the ground and groaning in pain. Their suits had also deactivated after taking damage from Warren's attack. "Are they going to be okay?" asked Shinichi. "Once they recover they won't be happy."

"People rarely are after I kick their butts," said Warren.

"Like Ryuji, Papa?" Lucy asked.

"He and others, Lucy," Warren replied. "So, do you want to wait here a bit or take this elsewhere?" Warren asked.

"Actually, Warren-san, I wanted to tell you that Kaa-chan and I moved here to the village," said Shinichi.

"Oh, congratulations," Warren said. "Gonna miss having you as a neighbor, though."

"Miss keeping an eye on me, you mean," Shinichi remarked.

"Well, I am your superior," Warren reminded, "You agreed to that after joining A.R.M.O.R."

"I know, I know," said Shinichi, waving his hand. "I'm just glad for the help against GIN-SHOCKER and the Darkloids. Oh, and Kaa-chan and I want to invite you over to our new house for a housewarming party."

"We'd be happy to come," said Warren, smiling. "I need to talk to your mom about your future missions anyways."

"I thought you wanted to keep my membership in A.R.M.O.R. a secret," blinked Shinichi, recalling what Warren had said during the recruitment.

"For the village at large, yes, the fewer people who know, the better. But, you're still a minor, thus, I need parental permission to send you on missions that could get you maimed or killed in some horrible and unspeakable fashion," explained Warren.

Shinichi held up a finger and cautioned, "You might wanna avoid mentioning that when talking to her. She worries enough as it is when I'm going out on my nightly patrols."

Warren shook his head. "I won't sugarcoat it Shinichi. You'll see things and face people you could never imagine."

Shinichi retorted, "After ten years of what I've been through, I think I can handle that, but Kaa-chan can't."

"I'll comb over some of the gorier details then," assured Warren.

"Good enough. By the way, I know you don't want me to say or do anything perverted, but I must say that Lucy-san is very pretty," said Shinichi. Shinichi was suddenly lifted up by an invisible force and thrown across the field.

"I told you not to hit on me!" shouted Lucy.

"It was a compliment!" defended Shinichi. "Sides, my girlfriend's prettier! And I've seen her boobs too, so hah!"

"Wrong choice of words…" groaned Warren.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY!" shrieked Lucy. She had shoved Shinichi face first into the dirt.

"Lucy, just try not to kill him before his first mission," sighed Warren.

"Totally…worth it…" Shinichi groaned.

"OK, time to port!" said Warren and with a snap of his fingers they were gone.

Shinichi and Lucy were teleported along by Warren to the native Rider's house. The house's occupants (Hanyuu, Rika and Shiori) were surprised by the sudden intrusion. Lucy already knew everything that she needed to know about Shinichi from her father, including info on his friends. Rachel was also present, bringing Alan along for the ride. She had come earlier to talk with Shiori with her family.

"Oh, so you're Hanyuu! I love the horns," said Lucy, grinning at the youthful looking goddess.

"You can see them?" Hanyuu gasped.

"Oh, don't worry," said Lucy as she removed her hat. "I have my own too."

"So cute!" Hanyuu's eyes widened and sparkled.

"My boyfriend thinks so as well," winked Lucy. However, since she was holding baby Alan, he immediately reached for her horns. "Sorry, Alan, but no touching." The little baby began fidgeting as if in some mini-tantrum.

"Warren-san, what brings you and your family here to my home tonight?" asked Shiori. "It's quite late."

"Kaa-chan, there's something you need to know so please keep an open mind and don't freak out," started Shinichi, nudging Warren with his elbow to continue.

"I recently recruited Shinichi into something. Something quite impressive. Tell me, Shiori, do you know what a Multiverse is?" asked Warren. Shiori shook her head and put a leveled gaze on Shinichi.

"Kaa-chan, the Multiverse is like the collection of ALL the universes in existence," explained Shinichi.

"I thought that was called the Omniverse," replied Shiori, having read a few books on the subject in the past.

Warren corrected, "No, it's similar, but an Omniverse exists on one single vibrational frequency. A Multiverse exists on multiple frequencies. This brings me to why I'm here. Shinichi has just been recruited into a peacekeeping taskforce for the Multiverse operated and run by me."

Shiori gave Warren a look, "You're serious, aren't you? This is not some kind of American joke, is it?"

"Kaa-chan, Warren-san and his family know about me…about Kamen Rider Showa." Rika narrowed her eyes at Warren.

"Who are you truly?" asked Rika in her adult voice. She didn't like anomalies. They were too…unpredictable.

"I'm Warren Smith, that's all there is to me," replied Warren, smiling. "I just want to make everything better." Rika sighed and shrugged.

"So, does this taskforce have a name? Is it anything catchy like "Super Cops" or "Omni Police" or the "Greatest Heroes in the Universe"?" asked Shiori.

"Wow, Kaa-chan" blinked Shinichi. "You're taking this much better than I thought."

"Well, I just got used to it. I mean you have super powers, some of your friends have super powers, and you fight monsters," said Shiori, shrugging, "I doubt anything can shock me further."

"The organization is called A.R.M.O.R.," said Warren.

"That sounds…simple," said Shiori, who seemed slightly disappointed.

"It's an acronym," Shinichi explained.

"It stands for Altered-Reality Monitoring and Operational Response," added Warren.

"Now that is cool!" cheered Shiori. "Shinji, you're so lucky. You'll be paid a lot of money."

"Kaa-chan, I think you're missing the point, although I do get paid a lot," said Shinichi, mumbling at the end, "If I survive long enough."

Warren spoke, "I think this would be easier if I showed you. Shinichi, since I know Rena will find out eventually, and that there's a good chance she'll tell your friends, you may as well invite them over here. Those NEO-NUMBERS as well."

"How about you come over to my classroom after school tomorrow?" suggested Shinichi. "It's kinda late right now."

"That'll work too," said Warren. "You all have a good night. See you all tomorrow."

Warren once again snapped his fingers and he and his family vanished from sight.

"That is so cool!" exclaimed Shiori, "Oh, and Shinji! If they really pay you a lot that means you can get Rena-chan that engagement ring you've always wanted to get her."

Shinichi blushed, with Rika and Hanyuu staring at him, and exclaimed, "KAA-CHAN~!"

Kamen Rider Chrome: OK, here's basic info.

Lucy is from the anime Elfen Lied. Now, before you say anything, I would like to point that Warren was able to save her from herself, and save her dog from those bullies. She was adopted and became Lucy Smith. OK, I know that in canon her birth name would be Kaede. Lucy is just a pseudonym, but since I haven't read the whole manga and making speculations based on fics, I chose Lucy. Kaede could just be her first name that she rarely uses or a middle name. It's still there, part of her name, but she goes by Lucy.

Now, Warren is omnipresent. He's a god-like being known as the Balance Guardian and he has a WHOLE lot of power and can do whatever it is he wants. Be glad he's on the side of good. Be glad he isn't Haruhi Suzumiya.

Now, reason why Lucy is Orga. Let's see…Orphenochs are the evolution of humans in one universe and dicloni are the same, so I thought it was appropriate. Also, Rachel having a baby is cute. Rachel is Raven, from Teen Titans, and not the wife of my OC, Shadow, from my ZKD stories. Warren comes from an AU and so did this Rachel. You'll see other characters from my other works appear as minor characters. A.R.M.O.R. has a recruited a lot of members.

Also, A.R.M.O.R. is based on a similar organization from Marvel Comics.

Now, this arc will focus on explaining the inner workings of A.R.M.O.R. so sit back and relax.

Also, an interview bit. Me as KR Chrome and Warren Smith as himself and the Balance Guardian.

Two men sat in the middle of the white octagonal room. One was Warren Smith as his persona as the Balance Guardian. Sitting across from him was a young man wearing a ninja mask and hood over his head and face to conceal his identity and he was wearing a suit. He had a nametag with the words 'Nintama Rataru' and ZK Chromedragozoid crossed out. Under the crossed out names was the name 'Kamen Rider Chrome'.

KRC: "Welcome to the show, Warren Smith. I mean…Balance Guardian-sama."

Warren: "Please, Warren's fine."

KRC: "Alright, Warren then. Tell me, how did you become the Balance Guardian? Was it passed on to you? Was it an inheritance? Or was it Fate?"

Warren: "Well, I became the Balance Guardian as a sort of deal. I get returned to life, and at some point down the line I gain the title and powers of the Balance Guardian from its former owner. In a way, it's also inheritance, seeing as how the previous Balance Guardian was my maternal Grandfather."

KRC: "I see, so you have power that equals or at least exceeds those of witches like Lambdadelta and Bernkastel?"

Warren: "At the very least it exceeds their own. I mean, my job is to maintain balance throughout the Multiverse."

KRC: "Awesome. So, I've read that you were once involved in something known as the 'Hyper Dimensional Wars'. Care to tell me about that?"

Warren: "Hm…that was one of the darker periods in my life, or afterlife as the case was."

KRC: "If it bothers you, then we'll gloss over some of the disturbing questions. However, I do recall that this was when you met a certain idealistic Kamen Rider."

Warren: "Correct. A young lad by the name of Ryuki Leonard Hasuma. A good friend and confidant of mine, as well as the Godfather of my son Leon."

KRC: "Weren't you annoyed by his idealism and worship of the Kamen Riders? I mean he was a bit too innocent to be a hero, was he not?"

Warren: "Heh, actually he reminded me of myself from when I was a kid, before some more...troubling incidents. And I think it was that innocence that made him into a good hero."

KRC: "Of course you knew that he was hiding his pain. How did you react when you found out what he was hiding from you? And you do know what I'm referring to."

Warren: "Yes, I know. And I understood how he felt. We all have darkness in us. It's only when we let that darkness consume us that it becomes truly dangerous."

KRC: "Yes, and it was because of him and several friends that you were able to find a way home via a train called the ChronoLiner."

Warren: "Yes, in time to stop a secret society from overrunning the world with vampires."

KRC: "And afterwards you would periodically show up in his world to assist him."

Warren: "Someone had to look after him."

KRC: "Did it feel awkward to meet a different version of your wife with another man?"

Warren: "A little bit, but after seeing how happy she was with Ichijyo, I got over it. Besides, I have no right to complain."

KRC: "Yes, and I also see you've made a habit of adopting children with troubled lives. Let's see…Lucy, Naruto and Shinji. They're even Kamen Riders who use Dark Rider equipment."

Warren: "I myself had a difficult childhood. To see those kids…abandoned, neglected…broken…I just couldn't help but take them in."

KRC: "How noble of you. Is that also why you also look after Ryuji Katsura and Ryuga Mizuki?"

Warren: "Correct. They may not admit it, but they're like little brothers to me."

KRC: "But didn't Ryuga kill countless people?"

Warren: "So have I. Like I've said in the past, I've committed countless sins."

KRC: "OK, now let's get back to the present. You went back in time to 1985 to meet a young man named Shinji Banabara, who also goes by Shinichi. He is also known as…"

Warren: "Can't really give that away, confidential A.R.M.O.R. info."

KRC: "Yes, however you've been recruiting a lot of new members."

Warren: "I have. There's a lot of evil out there, so, there needs to be an equal amount of good. Balance."

KRC: "So, are you in anyway associated to Smart Brain Corporation?"

Warren: "They do help us out from time to time, and vice-versa."

KRC: "For exchange of technology, no doubt."

Warren: "Well, we have access to technology far beyond what Smart Brain is currently developing. It helps create more effective Rider Suits."

KRC: "Oh, I also heard an interesting bit of information. You have two Pokewomen as lovers, do you now?"

Warren: "Angela and Liz. As well as my second wife, Teresa, who I named my daughter after."

KRC: "You have quite a large family. Do you support polygamy?"

Warren: "I believe people can make their own choices. My wife is fine with the situation. If she wasn't, everything would be much different."

KRC: "And it doesn't hurt they are all hot, eh?"

Warren: "No, it doesn't hurt at all."

KRC: "Wish I was in your shoes."

Warren laughed.

KRC: "So, as Balance Guardian, do you know a certain Zodiac Guardian and are you well acquainted with him?"

Warren: "You mean Libra? Yes, we know each other."

KRC: "Do you once question about him abandoning his children? Allowing his son to become an Orphenoch and allowing his daughter to be corrupted?"

Warren: "I know from experience the influence a higher power has over others. Besides, Neko's corruption by Sauron was before his time as Libra."

KRC: "Is it true that Sauron is your sister?"

Warren: "Half-sister…Unfortunately."

KRC: "She's like one of those annoying relatives that never goes away, isn't she?"

Warren: "Most of my relatives are."

KRC: "So, what inspired you to found A.R.M.O.R.?"

Warren: "It was the Hyper Dimensional Wars, as well as a Journey my fellow Riders and I went on."

KRC: "Because all universes needed to be united against evil?"

Warren: "No, but there are some universes where there are villains, but no heroes."

KRC: "And as such you decided to provide heroes for those hero-less worlds."

Warren: "Where there is evil, there must be good."

KRC: "Sorry, that's all the time we have here today. Join us next time as we interview another character from another series. Good night!"

Warren: "Good night everyone!"
